Preserve the sources behind a story, investigation, research project or dispute. Pay once to keep the page and its signed capture record on permanent storage.
A neutral automated system captures the page, not you, and a signed record shows exactly how it was made.
Paste a list of public links and capture every page in one run. Our server makes each visit, so the site sees Permavault, not you or your account.
Capture an article today and again tomorrow. Each copy is fingerprinted and timestamped, so a silent rewrite leaves a record.
Cite a capture built to outlive the page and its publisher. Any reader can check it has not changed since the day you captured it.
Download the page and its signed capture record, with instructions for checking whether the saved files still match that record.
A full copy of the page, stored on a permanent decentralized network of about 300 independent nodes and funded by a long-term storage endowment. Nobody can alter or delete it. Not us, not the site owner, not anyone.
Change a single byte and the fingerprint stops matching. Our digital signature seals the record, and an independent Bitcoin timestamp dates it without relying on us.
This is a real evidence package from a real capture of the Permavault homepage. Check each proof with free, open tools on Windows, Mac or Linux. No account needed, and every check runs on your own computer. Share it with opposing counsel, your expert or the court.

The Legal evidence package states whether the issued timestamp qualifies under eIDAS.
Still unsure? Write to us. A person answers, usually the same day.
[email protected]Permavault gives you a neutral capture, a signed record of how it was made and an independent Bitcoin timestamp. The Legal certificate adds a declaration template designed to support authentication under FRE 902(13) and 902(14). The Legal evidence package states whether its RFC 3161 timestamp qualifies under eIDAS. Admissibility is always the court’s decision.
A screenshot shows what your screen displayed, and it is easy to dispute. A capture records the page itself, how it was retrieved, and a fingerprint that changes if a single byte does, dated by an independent timestamp.
It is a public archive, not your evidence. A page is there only if someone archived it, many sites limit it, and courts have asked for an affidavit to rely on it. A Permavault capture is made when you need it and carries its own proof.
Nothing you captured goes with it. Keep your evidence packages or your History export and you hold every storage ID: captures stay on the permanent network, packages keep verifying with free tools, and private files open with your Recovery Kit and our offline opener, itself stored on that network.
No. You sign in with your email and pay by card in USD. Captures are stored on Arweave, a permanent decentralized storage network, and Bitcoin serves only as a public clock for timestamps.
A regular capture is public by design, which is what makes it easy to share and verify: anyone can open it, and its page address and title are on the public record. For confidential material, choose Private Capture. Only your vault can open it.
Every page is loaded in a separate, locked-down process that holds no account data and no signing keys. Our servers run in the European Union, with no ads and no tracking cookies.
Unused captures are refunded on request. Write to [email protected] and a person will answer.
